Best video equipment for airguns using Go Pro

Jump to latest Follow Reply
as stated above, the wide angle nature of go pros i have personally used make them ideal if the shooter is the subject, but for looking downrange, not so much.

if your goal is to give viewers a shooter's perspective...seeing more or less what you see when shooting your airgun, i think you want to look at "scope cams", but there could be adapters for using a go pro to record through the scope that i have not seen or tried.

I highly recommend saving up a little more and getting a actual Digital riflescope like a ATN or many others exist now in a similar price range and even cheaper. I just got a 4k pro for $630 shipped, records in 1080p with nightvision and ballistic calculator and range finder and on screen information like wind, temp, angle of inclination, yardage etc. etc. it brings so much to the table you just get so much more out of it to make your actual shooting more enjoyable and more tools to use, like different profiles for different zeros on multiple rifles. Compared to the limited functions of a gopro or a phone I think it blows them away. The LTV ATN version was on sale last week for $530 and is basically the same exact scope but without the bells and whistles like ballistic calculator, its just a basic 4k day night digital scope that will record video.

When I compare what I get with the ATN and the price compared to what I get with a $200+ camera/phone mount not including the camera or phone it made the decision easy to save up a little more. I think the go pro is best used as a target cam personally and is very well suited for that job. If you watch gopro scope cam footage on YouTube you will notice such a wide variety of video quality depending on the actual scope its mounted to. Also sometimes they wont focus on the crosshairs on certain scopes. 

For a nice wide angle shot of you actually shooting at your bench or a table top review and the ability to hook a nice mic up to it and record professional video and audio Id recommend any quality DSLR like a cannon or sony.
